Mark, I try to upgrade mediawiki 1.21rc1 installation at http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/c/
to mediawiki 1.21rc5 at
http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/o/

In order to do this in  methodologicallycorrect way,
I make the clone of previous wiki with new fersion of the support.

I have dumped the database.
I created the new database.
I load the dump to the new database.
I extracted and copied the dustribution from
mediawiki-1.21.0rc5.tar
I loaded there the images from the previous version.
Now I try to setup, indicating the database I just created.
it says:
There are MediaWiki tables in this database. To upgrade them to MediaWiki 1.21.0rc5, click Continue.

I click, but come to the same message.
There is a bad loop; all the time it siggests that I click "continue",
but does not seem to do anything else.

In othere words, I could make a "readonly" clone of the old mediawiki installation at http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/TORID/
but I cannot do the same for the recent installation of mediawiki 1.21rc1.

I tried to copy the previous LocalSettings.php with appropriate modifications, but it provides the empty page. I remove the LocalSettings.php, and try to setup again, and again come to the bad loop..

I think, this is a bug.
I expect, you can easy reproduce this effect, trying to setup
http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/o/

Mark, I have installed the new version.
I used the previous databasa from site
tori.ils.uec.ac.jp/TORI (disconnected by order of the director)
and figures from there. The old pages, and old figures, except one, are seen.
The new figures cannot be uploaded, the message is
[549ad7fd] 2013-05-14 05:33:25: Fatal exception of type UploadStashFileException

If I change the LocalSettings.php, declaring
     $wgHashedUploadDirectory = false;
Then I can load new figures, but in this case old figures are not shown.
I change the setting back (suppressing that line); then the old images
are seen, but the new image (just uploaded) is not seen.
Could you look, please, at

and say, is this my fault or a bug?
